Someone Else's Kids- 2

Ali-the other boy in my school- For want of a better word I use the word "school" its more like a care centre...
Ali-Ten, Brown, strong, with a vocabulary that has a expletive added with every 3 words

His file read-" Refugee from Bangladesh, illegal migration, 6 months back in a family scuffle, witnessed his mother stabbing his father with a knife, she is currently in custody as a undertrial"

While I droned about the ten commandments, Ali sang a hindi song in his childish voice......
